Alla mina sommarlov var jag i Älvsbyn och vid Storforsen, älskar den trakten, saknar den hela tiden!

Norrbotten County, the northernmost county in Sweden, boasts an incredible expanse of land encompassing nearly one quarter of the entire country. However, you won't find bustling cities or densely populated towns here. Despite its vast size, Norrbotten County is sparsely inhabited. This can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, the harsh Arctic climate with long, freezing winters and relatively short summers makes living conditions challenging for many individuals. Additionally, the county's remote location and limited transportation infrastructure make it less appealing for people seeking urban conveniences. However, this sparse population density also provides breathtaking natural beauty and tranquility that attracts adventure seekers who are willing to embrace the region's unique character. In Norrbotten County, visitors can explore picturesque landscapes teeming with pristine forests, crystal-clear lakes, and stunning wildlife that thrive in this secluded corner of Sweden.
